You guys, I'm gonna need a minute…

This is inspirational stuff right here, I'm just a little choked up.

No joke, an actual woman won Miss Universe. This is great news in 2023 — one small step for woman, one giant step for womankind. A thing of true beauty.

Sheynnis Palacios of Nicaragua was crowned the 2023 Miss Universe at the culmination of the annual beauty pageant, which took place on Saturday night in El Salvador's capital, San Salvador. Anntonia Porsild of Thailand placed as first runner-up.

Palacios' win marks the first-ever time a Nicaraguan woman has won Miss Universe. She had previously represented Nicaragua in the 2017 Teen Miss Universe pageant, placing in the top 10, and in the 2021 Miss World pageant.

It's confirmed, there is no Adam's apple.

Amazing that she won the competition with two transgender contestants in her path and a transgender activist running the show.

There were so many different intersectional firsts the judges could have gone for.

This proves that the world isn't in a complete downward spiral as we all assumed.

There's still some hope left out there for women!
